did anyone think diaz was just smoking weed to get high and not help his performance cause thats what people usually do and i think we should give him props for still making weight after he got the munchies

Thats what i think it was. Maybe he was gettin stressed out over having a big fight coming up so he had a toke or 2 or 32.

he knew he was gonna get tested... and hes a professional athelete.. represent yourself and your sport as you should, and not like a drug user. sure most of us have toked before (me, included -for about 2 years) but we're not professionals in the most growing sport in USA

But what kind of penaly is he gonna get? He is already Medically suspened i have heard. So would he get like a few more months on that or would he simply have that time included.

That's lame? When it's not much worse for steroids? Fighters should be happy if their opponent is smoking weed it might slow their reflexes.

This is not cheating.

It has nothing to do with marijuana being a performance enhancing drug. It has nothing to do with Diaz "cheating." Marijuana is banned by the NSAC because in the United States of America, marijuana is illegal. It is a controlled substance and if it is found in his system during the mandatory NSAC drug test he will be reprimanded as stated by the NSAC. Drug tests are commonplace for professional athletes and wether you partake in recreational pot smoking or recreational horse tranquilizer injection you risk the consequences of your drug use and now since Diaz chose to ignore the NSAC he will now face those consequences.

I never said he shouldn't have the consequences. If a fighter is told not to have anything in their system they shouln't. I asked why it is lame that they "only" get suspended when that is the punishment for much worse offenses.
